The easiest way to tell if NFL overtime is fair is to publish the stats on overtime games of who won the coin toss vs who won the game. That stat should be 50% given enough samples because a coin flip is completely unbiased. Then do the same stat for college over time games. That will tell us which overtime is fairer.
Also I don't like the automatic first down in some situations either. Namely when the play wouldn't have resulted in a first down anyway. The problem is it is hard to know if the play would have resulted in a first down without the penalty.
